Clothes play an important role in the conclusions we reach by providing clues to who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good deal about the wearer’s background, personality, statue, mood and social outlook. Since clothes are such an important source of social information, we can use them to win people’s good impression. Our appearance assumes particular significance in the beginning of communication. For example, a middle-class person in plain clothes may be barely grouped by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the person’s education, background, or interest.
People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the lifestyle of girls who wear fancy clothes. Newscasters or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered to be more convincing honest and competent when they are dressed conservatively. And college students who view themselves as taking an active role in their interpersonal relationships say they are concerned about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can be aware that the clothing we wear change the way we feel about ourselves and how we act. Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you are present at a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance.
In the workplace, the appearances of men and women are equally important, especially women. How do women gain success in wearing in the business world? They should mix up manliness and womanliness. The variety of clothing alternatives to women has also been greater than that available for men. Male administrator tend to judge women more favorably for managerial post when the women display less ―womanliness‖, grooming shorter hair, slight use of make-up and plain tailored clothing. 32.
